I was always moved by the NFL players kneeling, because men who had attained great success within the system were saying that had not been bought off, that they remembered those underserved & disserved. What’s happened to us that we’re so afraid of healthy disagreement & protest?

Football was the one place where people of all political persuasions could go and enjoy themselves. Not standing for the National Anthem has caused such division. They have other platforms to protest. What has happened to patriotism in this country?🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Their kneeling did not cause division except among those who didn’t want them to. I thought it was quite beautiful seeing the men who were not dealing next to the men who were kneeling. Where is someone’s patriotism that you would deny an American the right to express themselves?

They have plenty of platforms to express themselves. Yes, it has created division from people who disagree with them, which is the majority of the fans. They just simply wanted to go to a game and enjoy it, and not get involved in anyone’s politics.

How do you know it was the majority of the fans?

How about they protest the same thing.
